Probably because they sell more of that high dollar black cloud bull crap.

The density of steel is the same now as it was last year. And it still sucks.

Actually the density of steel varies as well as the hardness. Steel shot density in particular can vary from company to company depending on the manufacturing process. However, "steel shot" generally averages 7.85-7.86g/cc .Originally Posted by willyworm
Some folks even go so far as to say dont reload airgun bb's due to their hardness and density differences because it MAY CAUSE pressure increases. 20181204_072155.jpeg

That's what I said. All that stuff was true last year and is now.
